OK.  What, then, is an entry in your previous listing?  What does it
signify?  What are the meanings of the second, third, and fifth fields?

Can you display the volume scans from your system and the one in
Boulder?  Are they different?  If not, then the size discrepancy
might be an artifact of processing by different computers.

Regards,
Steve Emmerson
